New Democratic Party Theme Song

[orleans]

i don't know if we have one but here's a suggestion:

Just One Victory by Todd Rundgren

"We’ve been waiting so long,
We've been waiting so long,
We’ve been waiting for the sun to rise and shine
Shining still to give us the will
Can you hear me, the sound of my voice?
I am here to tell you I have made my choice
I’ve been listening to what’s been going down
There’s just too much talk and gossip going ’round
You may think that I’m a fool, but I know the answer
Words become a tool, anyone can use them
Take the golden rule, as the best example
Eyes that have seen will know what I mean

The time has come to take the bull by the horns
We’ve been so downhearted, we’ve been so forlorn
We get weak and we want to give in
But we still need each other if we want to win

Hold that line, baby hold that line
Get up boys and hit ’em one more time
We may be losing now but we can’t stop trying
So hold that line, baby hold that line

If you don’t know what to do about a world of trouble
You can pull it through if you need to and if
You believe it’s true, it will surely happen
Shining still, to give us the will
Bright as the day, to show us the way

Somehow, someday,
We need just one victory and we’re on our way
Prayin’ for it all day and fightin’ for it all night
Give us just one victory, it will be all right
We may feel about to fall but we go down fighting
You will hear the call if you only listen
Underneath it all we are here together shining still"

[autorank]

1. That's a great song for us.

Perfect lines:
"We need just one victory and we’re on our way
Prayin’ for it all day and fightin’ for it all night
Give us just one victory, it will be all right"

:hi:

3. thanks.

i think it's a wonderful song--very empowering. (have you ever heard it?)

it's todd's theme song (i guess) but maybe he'd be willing to lend it out to us to rally the troops

[Syrinx]

2. similar lyrics from my favorite band of all time, Rush

Rush - One Little Victory Lyrics

A certain measure of innocence
Willing to appear naive
A certain degree of imagination
A measure of make-believe

A certain degree of surrender
To the forces of light and heat
A shot of satisfaction
In a willingness to risk defeat

Celebrate the moment
As it turns into one more
Another chance at victory
Another chance to score

The measure of the moment
In a difference of degree
Just one little victory
A spirit breaking free
One little victory
The greatest act can be
One little victory

A certain measure of righteousness
A certain amount of force
A certain degree of determination
Daring on a different course

A certain amount of resistance
To the forces of the light and love
A certain measure of tolerance
A willingness to rise above

[Pushed To The Left]

4. That would definitely be a good theme song for us.

I don't think I've heard the song before, but the lyrics would be great for the Demcoratic Party right now.

6. "just one victory" is a really good song

i think it's on todd rundgren's "a wizard, a true star" album

5. Just as long as it's not "Yer Blues"

"Yes I'm lonely, wanna die!"
